bahulaM chandasi ONPANINI 71010
Crazily in the vedas.mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 726

vedic exception to atobhisa. The vedas, like cats, do whatever they want. So sometimes they have no ais after a --

devo devebhir A gamat "the god comes with the gods"

Where

deva- + bhis →bahuvacanejhalyet deve- + bhis → devebhis "with gods"

And other times they have ais after non-a --

nadI- + bhis → nadyais "with rivers"

Elsewhere than in the vedas, only devais and nadIbhis are allowed.

Not after k-less idam- adas- .mmmmmmmmm ^ C+ 727

In other words, there is no atobhisa::ais in ebhis "with these" and amIbhis "with those". --

idam- "this" + bhis ebhis "by these"

adas- "that" + bhis amIbhis "by those"

idam- and adas- are k-less when they have not got the affix akac. When they do, they do get ais replacement --

Gasi to At --

vRkSa + Gasi vRkSa + At →akassa vRkSAt "from a tree"

Ger yaH ONPANINI 71013

a plus Ge makes aya by this rule, then Aya by supica --

vRkSa- + Ge vRkSa- + ya →supica vRkSAya "to a tree"

KAZIKA Ger iti caturthy-ekavacanasya grahaNam. akArAntAd aGgAd uttarasya Ge ity etasya yaH ityayam Adezo bhavati. vRkSAya. plakSAya. ataH iti kim? sakhye. patye. sannipAtalakSaNo vidhiranimittaM tadvighAtasya iti paribhASeyam anityA, tena dIrgho bhavati.

The Ges word in the rule is Ge- + Gas, where Ge- means "the affix Ge" and the a was lost by GasiGasozca.

sarvanAmnaH smai ONPANINI 71014

Example --

tad- + Ge →tyadAdInAmaH ta- + Ge → ta- + smai → tasmai "to that one, to him, to it"

As in --

Gasi;GyoH smAt;sminau ONPANINI 71015
(After a -ender pronoun,) Gasi Gi to smAt smin.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 731 pronoun

Examples of Gasi to smAt --

tad- + Gasi →tyadAdInAmaH ta + Gasi tasmAt "from that, because of that, therefore"

sarva- + Gasi sarvasmAt "from every"

Examples of Gi to smin --

tad- + Gi tasmin "in that, in that place, there"

sarva- + Gi sarvasmin "in every"

kim- + Gi →tyadAdInAmaH ka + Gi kasmin "where, in which?"

As in --

tasmin vane vyAghrAH "there are tigers in that forest"

tasmin vyAghraH "the tiger is there"

Instead of kasmin, we may also say kva (see kimot and kvAti).

jasaH zI ONPANINI 71017
jas to zI (after masculine pronouns in a).mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 732 pronoun

In other words, a of a pronoun plus jas makes e.

The z label of (z)I ensures that it can replace the whole of jas, see anekAlzit.

Examples --

sarva- m + jas sarva- + zI →AdguNaH sarve "all"

tad- m + jas →tyadAdInAmaH ta + jas ta + zI →AdguNaH te'''' "those"

There are other te words, see te disambiguation .

This te'''' is not a hanger, so it can start a sentence (unlike te'').

auGa:: ApaH ONPANINI 71018
au to ( zI) after Ap.mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 733

In other words, " Ap plus au makes e".

Examples --

azva- f + au →ajAdyataSTAp azva + Ap + au →akassa azvA + au azvA + I →AdguNaH azve "two mares"

tad- f + au →tyadAdInAmaH ta + au ta + zI → te' "those two"

Which happens to sound the same as --

tad- n + au →tyadAdInAmaH ta + au →napuMsakAcca ta + zI →AdguNaH te' "those two"

KAZIKA AbantAdaGgAduttarasya auGaH zI ityayam Adezo bhavati. khaTve tiSThataH. khaTve pazya. bahurAje. karISagandhye.

The au(G) in the rule is the name earlier grammarians gave to the affix au, or so I'm told. Here it carries Gas. TBH, I have no clue why the rule was not worded as Ava_ApaH.

napuMsakAc ca ONPANINI 71019
( au to (z)I) after neuter.mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 734

Examples --

ziras n + au ziras + (z)I → zirasI "two heads"

madhu- n + au madhu + I →ikocivibhaktau madhun + I → madhunI "two kinds of honey"

tad- n + au →tyadAdInAmaH ta + au ta + zI →AdguNaH te' "those two"

Which happens to sound the same as --

tad- f + au →tyadAdInAmaH ta + au →auGa_ApaH ta + zI → te' "those two"

If the neuter ends in a, we will always have AdguNaH --

phala n + au phala + I →AdguNaH phale "two results"

This zI affix appears --

after all neuters, by this rule

after masculine pronouns, by jasazzI

after Ap, by auGa::ApaH

Don't confuse this zI affix with the zi affix, that has short i and appears after neuter plurals only.

KAZIKA napuMsakAd aGgAd uttarasya auGaH zI ity ayam Adezo bhavati. kuNDe tiSThataH kuNDe pazya. yasyeticeti lopaH prAptaH. zyAM pratiSedho vaktavya iti na bhavati. dadhinI. madhunI. trapuNI. jatunI.

The z label of (z)I is useless here (but useful in jasazzI).

jaH;zasoH ziH ONPANINI 71020
jas zas to zi (after neuter).mmmmmmmmm ^ M+ C+ 735

jas and zas must always be replaced with zi after a neuter.

The (z)i affix is made by this rule only. It has z label to make anekAlzit work. Do not confuse it with zI, thats has long I.

Examples --

bahupur- n + jas bahupur- n + zi → bahupuri "full of cities"

nAman- + zas nAman- n + zi →rAjAnam nAmAni "names"

If the neuter nounbase does not end in n r, rule napuMsakasyajhalacaH will usually work --

manas- + jas manas- n + zi →napuMsakasyajhalacaH manans- n + zi →sAnta manAnsi →nazcApa manAMsi "minds"

phala + jas phala + zi →napuMsakasyajhalacaH phalan + zi →rAjAnam phalAni

aSTAbhya:: auz ONPANINI 71021
After aSTA, ( jas zas) to au(z).mmmmmmmmm ^ M- C+ 736

The aSTA mentioned in this rule is the replacement of aSTan "eight" made by optional rule aSTana::A.

Example --

aSTan- (any gender) + jas →aSTana::A aSTA- + jas aSTA- + auz →vRddhireci aSTau "eight"

If we didn't choose to make aSTana::A work, this rule does not work --

aSTan- (any gender) + jas →SaDbhyoluk aSTan- →nalopaHprA aSTa "eight"

So, this rule may be reworded as "aSTa plus jas or zas makes aSTa or aSTau". This works in all genders. Example of neuter aSTau --

ekatazH-zyAma-karNAnAM zatAny aSTau dadasva me | hayAnAJM candra-zubhrANAGM gaccha gAlava mAciram || "Give me eight hundreds of horses, white like the moon, with one black ear each, gAlava. Leave. Now."

Examples --

ziras- n + su OR am ziras "head"

Exception to svamorna. Examples --

phala- n + am phala- + am →amipUrvaH phalam "result, fruit"

This rule replaces am with am so that svamorna won't replace am with luk.

See replacing a thing with itself looks pointless .
